The report notes that this specific sighting was considered to be identical in appearance to other light phenomena previously reported in the Kuopio area during the mid-summer period. The official conclusion reached by the evaluating agency, the Aerospace Studies Institute, was that there was insufficient data available to conduct a proper evaluation of the event.
